Pole figures displaying crystallographic texture of gamma-TiAl in a rolled sheet of alpha2-gamma alloy, as measured by high energy X-rays. [2]Gamma TiAl has excellent mechanical properties and oxidation and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures (over 600 °C), which makes it a possible replacement for traditional Ni based superalloy components in aircraft turbine engines.
During the casting process, the molten aluminum is injected into the mold and burns off the resin, leaving an area of localized hypereutectic aluminum only in the area of the cylinder bore. The silicon particles are then mechanically exposed in a similar process to an Alusil block resulting in a cylinder block that functions in the same way as ...
Crystal of potassium alum, KAl(SO 4) 2 ·12H 2 O. An alum (/ ˈ æ l ə m /) is a type of chemical compound, usually a hydrated double sulfate salt of aluminium with the general formula X Al(SO 4) 2 ·12 H 2 O, such that X is a monovalent cation such as potassium or ammonium. [1] By itself, "alum" often refers to potassium alum, with the ...
Activated alumina is used for a wide range of adsorbent and catalyst applications including the adsorption of catalysts in polyethylene production, in hydrogen peroxide production, as a selective adsorbent for many chemicals including arsenic, fluoride, in sulfur removal from fluid streams (Claus Catalyst process).
Ammonium aluminium sulfate, also known as ammonium alum or just alum (though there are many different substances also called "alum"), is a white crystalline double sulfate usually encountered as the dodecahydrate, formula (NH 4)Al(SO 4) 2 ·12H 2 O. It is used in small amounts in a variety of niche applications.
Many types of sandpaper use aluminium oxide crystals. In addition, its low heat retention and low specific heat make it widely used in grinding operations, particularly cutoff tools. As the powdery abrasive mineral aloxite , it is a major component, along with silica , of the cue tip "chalk" used in billiards .
Ammonium iron(III) sulfate, NH 4 Fe(SO 4) 2 ·12 H 2 O, or NH 4 [Fe(H 2 O) 6](SO 4) 2 ·6 H 2 O, also known as ferric ammonium sulfate (FAS) or iron alum, is a double salt in the class of alums, which consists of compounds with the general formula AB(SO 4) 2 · 12 H 2 O. [2] It has the appearance of weakly violet, octahedrical crystals.
Aluminium smelting is the process of extracting aluminium from its oxide, alumina, generally by the Hall-Héroult process.Alumina is extracted from the ore bauxite by means of the Bayer process at an alumina refinery.
